He Gives

I was reading a post from a friend on social media yesterday. She’s been through a difficult few months, yet through it all, her faith has kept her strong. I talked to her a few weeks ago, and she mentioned that she wasn’t sure why the Lord felt she was so strong, but she was…

Don’t Underestimate

I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday. We were discussing our busy schedules, juggling the various things in our day. We were discussing the general craziness out there these days, I swear there is a full moon like 6 out of the 7 days a week 🙂 . What was interesting was we…

The Old Days

Yesterday, after church, we joined our friends at breakfast (as has become the routine). We went to one of our four places of choice. When we were seated and had our coffee, we started looking at the menu. We all noticed that it was different. It was considerably smaller; they had taken many things off…

My Heart, Your Heart

A few mornings ago, I was sitting on the lanai having my regular a.m. check-in with Father. I was asking for prayers for my “regulars,” I call them. Of course, family and friends, but also those who have specific needs, such as the return of sweet Emily Rea. As I talked with Him and prayed,…

He Is the Same

I woke up several times last night. Not one of my more restful nights’ sleep. You know how it goes, you try to shut your mind off, but there are just those evenings when it doesn’t want to cooperate. I tried the standard things, counting sheep, deep breathing, counting backwards from 100, ya, no dice.…

Live Life

I read a beautiful story last night, posted by a friend on her social media page. It is a story of love, hope, and the ability of God’s children to live life. You see, her elderly father has been having health issues recently, including a stroke. He was scheduled to have surgery in the near…

The Losses

This morning, as I try to do on Saturday, I was a little slower getting started. That’s code word for sleeping in. I’ve shared here before how much I enjoy sitting on my lanai on Saturday mornings before the neighborhood gets going. It’s quiet, the wildlife is talking, the sky is a brilliant blue. This…

Share the Sky

Last night, a friend sent me a text message. It was a picture of the most beautiful sunset over the water. She said she had received it from a friend. When she saw it, she said, “It made me think of you”. That makes me smile. Later in the evening, I was checking the social…

Listen to the Pull

Have you ever experienced those moments when you’ve felt a pull to do something? Well, that’s pretty open-ended, isn’t it? Yesterday, we were in the midst of many things. Volunteers came to help us put our Sunday school rooms back in place. Almost a year ago, Hurricane Milton came through and filled many of them…

The Message Is Clear

Every now and then, I take a moment to look at the first little blogs that I wrote here. That was over three years ago. The blogs have changed since the beginning in many ways; however, I think the message is still very clear. Father is guiding the ramblings I put here each day. This…
